Upon the third day after Junior's fall the little hoy was sitting up and adulation of his grandparents, Dicky's mother and my father, who were spelling cach other in story telling for his amusement.

Come in here.” He threw open the door of his own room, and when T had entered closed it again and drew out a chair for me with his habitual courtesy. “Of course you're going to throw up that damned job and stay out here with Junior this Winter,” he said with a complacent maddening little smile.

That is not true by any means. It sometimes breeds respect, a very deep respect. It was s0 with Farmer Brown's Boy and Mrs. Longbill the Woodeock. Mrs. Longbill had actually allows ed Farmer Brown’s Boy to put his hand on her back as she sat on her nest, Now, that was familiarity, It was most decidedly familiarity. But the result of it was respect on both sides. Mrs. Longbill respected Farmer Brown's Boy for not taking advantage of her, and Farmer Brown's Boy respected Mrs. Long- bill for her good sense and the con- fidence she was giving him. He didn’t take advantage of it. He was | content to just stroke her. He got her so used to it that she didn't mind it at all. If the truth be known, she rather enjoyed it. Now, Farmer Brown's Boy is like | every other boy—he has curiosity. He had seen Mrs. Longbill's eggs just once. That was when he had | first found the nest and had fright-! ened her from it. He wanted to see them again. But Mrs. Longbill had no intention of showing them to him again, On the third day he came as usual, quietly, always moving slowly and gently. It seemed to him there was a welcoming gleam in the big eyes of Mrs. Longbill. He stooped | stooped over and stroked her, He tickled her in the back of the neck For the first time she moved.

Other eyes in the lit- tle swamp had watched Farmer Brown’s Boy come and go and won- dered what it was all about. The wonder was that the secret of Longbill and Mrs. J.onghill was kept, for sharp eyes and keen noses searched to find out why Farmer Brown's Boy came to the swamp every day.

Boston, June 6, (A—DMaria Moli- nary has followed a 35,000 mile trail from Aquadilla, Porto Rico, to Boston during her quest for a col- lege education. The long-sought guerdon is now in sight for this persevering miss, for she is to receive her degree from Boston University this month. Travels that began in the West Indies led her to Honolulu, into the Far East, across Europe to Iondon, thence to the ['nited States, and then a few thousand miles more. The eldest of a family of five, Maria acted as interpreter after she had finished grammar school in Porto Rico. Then she accompanied her missionary-guardiam, Mildren L. Smith, to Honolulu, where she completed her high school work, From there a long journey took them through Japan, China, India and the countries of Europe to Par- is. They arrived there too late for Maria to enter school. The same tardiness Kkept her from en- tering any of the New York uni- versities, when, at length, they crossed the Atlantic. But Maria went to the middle west, where she found opportunity to make up her back work while taking advance studies. Summer school work at the University of Minnesota and last summer at the Alliance Francaise and the Sor- bonne, in Paris, brought her in ex- cellent standing to Boston univer- sity last September. Maria, who is a popular member of her class at the Boston univer- sity school of education, speaks ex- cellent English, and expects to teach foreign languages {in conti- nental United States before return- ing to Porto Rico. Women Traffic Chiefs Will Exchange Ideas San Francisco, June 6. (#—Wo- man’s more or less unheralded in- vasion of an executive field com- paratively new to the sex will be apparent in the meeting here June 12 and 13 of approximately 50 fem- inine traffic experts from widely separated parts of the United States. ‘The Women's Traffic club of San Francisco will be the host, acting with the Pacific Traffic association which will entertain the sixth an- nual convention of the Associated Traffic Clubs of America. Exchange of ideas and discussion of problems that confront the wo- traffic manager or traffic ex- man pert will constitute the business sessions. The subjects include han- dling of commodities by rail, water and airplane.

A new note happy treatment, Varcose Veins and the Causes Faulty Blood Valves Is Principal Reason, RBY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hy. gein, the Health Magasine Our modesty relative to our bo- dies is slowly giving way to compre- hension of the fact that we will never get anywhere in controlling some of the worst conditions that afflict mankind until we are ready to talk about them frequently and openly, There was a time when it would have shocked the delicate sensi- bilities of most Americans even to mention varicose veins. Now come- dians make them the =ubject of wisecracks in vaudeville shows. Most of the veins of the body are provided with valves which keep the column of blood going back to the heart from settling. When the valves break down the veins dilate and are called vari- cose veins, ‘When the veins become dilated they tend to project above the skin in lumpy masses. These umps easily become irritated. Then they become inflamed. If they are only slightly inflamed they itch and cause general dis- comfort. 1f they get blocked clots may form in them and these may be exceedingly painful. tion subsides the lieved. Unfortunately If the irrita- person is re- the human re- sponse to itching is scratching, |and the response to irritation is rubbing or other manipulation. Either of these actions make the condition worse in the long run, cven though it may bring temporary relief. The best methods of treatment involve the drinking of plenty of water, and the use of fresh fruits tenda to and vegetables in the diet. For itching and irritation most physi- cians advise scrupulous attention recommending usu- ally washing with warm water but without soap since the may be irritant. The itching may be overcome by the use of ointments contain- ing anti-itching substances which physicians prescribe according to the needs of the patlent concerned. The ointments give the tissues a chance to heal, without irritation from repeated scratch- ing. In extremely severe cases Op- crative removal of the dilated veins or hemorrhoids offers certain and permanent relief, Charm Needed to Be Good Singer Success Depends Much Upon Personality. Not hy voic: alone does any singer win success, according to Lenora Bparkes, English soprano who has just left the Metropolitan Opera Company for the concert stage. “I am almost tempted to say that the voice is the least import- ant ingredient in the success of a singer,” Miss Sparkes asserted. “Instead I will say that voice, musical intelligence and personal charm represent a ‘complete trinity in the achievement of success. “By ‘individual charm,’ 1 do not mean a mere loveliness of face and form, called beauty. T mean spiritusl quality that transcenda a lovely voice and carries, through the me- dium of that voice, something of the inner beauty, strength and vi- sion of a personality. ‘Of course many charming per- | sons have failed at singing because they lacked voice. But probably just as many good voices have failed because they lacked acter and charm. “Understanding of warmth of heart, personal interests, people, qualities a singer's life ed by, show in her much as they do artist.

Tt is a gar- ment, though, which even the smartest woman finds use for at some time or other. In every one of I have shown several tions of “manteau pour la pluie.” This is not a garment which is likely to be worn day in and out. It also is not one which ever will to' great wear and interpreta- tear. Assuming that a raincoat need not be all-resisting nor everlast- ing, vet presenting essential fea- tures of perfect cut, fit and smart- ness, 1 use the most supple and luxurious materials consistent with the object in view, that of protecting its wearer from the rain, He Favors Crepe Waterproof crepe is my favorite medium and 1 think this rather fragile tissue is amply sufficient for the requircments of a emart woman who, after all, uses a rain- coat very rarely. A hat of the same material is more or less es sential and should have a brim, especially at the back, where it will extend over the tightly-but- toned storm collar. I always have the impression that thus equipped a smart woman looks as though she were going to play at braving the elements. A raincoat always should be of a bright color. White 1is always smart, so s beige, and there are some very attractive ahades of blue, red and green which lend color to a rainy day. The cut of the coat its chic. The shoulders have the same careful that distinguishes a smart suit or topcoat. Of course no raincoat should be too snug. But there are means of giving ample room and still preserving the trim lines that give style. I treat raincoat as I do any fine garment, using an original touch here and there.

(A—Paris hand- workers, who include thousands ot Russians, have a comparatively new industry in the making of luxurious silk articles of bedding and table use. Silk sheets now are regarded by the wealthy as near necessities, judging from the numbers in which they are purchased in the Rue de la Paix. Not only silk bedding but silken table covers favishly worked by hand are in big demand here.
